Ellipse Shape
In geometry, an ellipse is a two-dimensional shape, that is defined along its axes. An ellipse is formed when a cone is intersected by a plane at an angle with respect to its base.
It has two focal points. The sum of the two distances to the focal point, for all the points in the curve, is always constant.
A circle is also an ellipse, where the foci are at the same point, which is the centre of the circle.
Ellipse
An ellipse is the locus of all points on a plane with constant distances from two fixed points in the plane. The fixed points encircled by the curve are known as foci (singular focus). The constant ratio is the eccentricity of the ellipse and the fixed line is the directrix. In this article, we will learn about the ellipse in detail.
